A reader asked me to relay my experience with the 6.8 Special Purpose Cartridge, since I shot the high-power match at my club with the 6.8 upper. I bought the upper a few years ago at the Gun Blogger Rendezvous, because Uncle had brought it out on behalf of Ko-Tonics (who are no longer in … Continue reading “The 6.8SPC Experience”
Looks like the attorney who won the Heller case will be at Gun Blogger Rendezvous this year. Kudos to Traction Control for getting him out to Reno.
As much as I would love to be able to attend this year’s Gun Blogger Rendezvous, I will not be able to. I went last year, and had a great time, and was hoping to get to go again this year. But it’s just not in the cards for a few reasons: I’m short on … Continue reading “Going to Have To Bail from GBR”
I’m guessing we won’t be seeing Clayton at the Gun Blogger Rendezvous any time soon. Say what you will about Reno, but Washoe County has a hell of a shooting range. I’m not much of a gambler either, so that aspect of the city is no attraction to me. I did find the automobile museum … Continue reading “Clayton Cramer on Reno”
Bitter and I attended part of the Board of Directors meeting for the NRA this weekend, since we were in Virginia this weekend. Chris Cox’s report before the Board stressed the dire need for ATF reform, speaking about how far back this problem goes, and their strategy to fix it through congressional action. Also stressed … Continue reading “NRA and ATF Reform”
… that Bitter said to me in a text message “You should really be blogging”, which got me started on this whole thing. Ironically the first post was about taking another girl shooting. A lot has happened since I posted about that. Wow. We’re at 2288 Posts, 8468 comments, 173,000 visits, and more than half … Continue reading “It Was One Year Ago Today …”
I got a response from NRA regarding the member form: Per this post: http://www.pagunblog.com/?p=2253, let me both thank you and apologize. In reading this, I went back to double check the functionality of this ILA web form only to find there is a problem with it delivering e-mail to us. We had no reason to … Continue reading “NRA Response on Contact Form”
This amusing post from Scott Adams reminds me of my gambling experience in Reno while attending the Gun Blogger Rendezvous. Scott suggests that casinos eventually just set up ATMs to make noise and flash lights so people feel entertained. I was amused at the notion of this, and wondered if people would fall for it. … Continue reading “Gambling Slots”
I’ll be traveling to see Bitter this weekend. We haven’t seen each other in three weeks now, because of the Gun Blogger Rendezvous, and because of Bitter ditching me last weekend, only to get ditched by the friend she ditched me for.  It was a chain reaction of ditching. But this weekend it’s Virginia or … Continue reading “Virginia This Weekend”
Last month, many of you may remember I attended one of the NRA board of director’s meetings. One of the things that was talked about with some of the folks at ILA was whether they could send someone over to our Gun Blogger Rendezvous in Reno that weekend. Since they were already going to be … Continue reading “NRA at the GBR”
